Companies in this industry often operate in sensitive and protected environments. We are able to provide the forestry industry with high treatment performance that produces effluent safe for discharge into delicate eco systems.

The UviLux BOD Indicator enables in-situ, real-time, reporting of BOD within both natural water systems and water processing plants. The monitor detects fluorescent proteins that are inherent within sewage and slurry and provides an output in BOD equivalent units. The principle behind the measurement is the excitation of Tryptophan-like fluorescence within UV wavelength band, which has been shown to correlate with both BOD and bacterial contamination. With complete flexibility of deployment methodology, the...

Industry and municipal waste-water (sewage) treatment plants have had to respond to environmental legislation such as the Urban Waste Water Directive, IPC, IPPC and now the EPR (Environmental Permitting Regulations). As successive legislation becomes more stringent, discharge consents have been progressively tightened, and the need for self-regulation has become more important. As a consequence, on-line instrumentation has been installed throughout waste-water industry to continuously to provide final effluent...

TenCate Geotube technology dewaters primary, secondary and overflow sludge from the sewage treatment plants’ digesters and lagoons. This municipal dewatering solution is used in water and wastewater treatment applications including lagoons, tanks, and digester cleanouts. The containers can provide dewatering and containment in one operation, with 85% to 90% reduction of BOD in the effluent. Most of the time, the dewatered effluent is clear and safe enough to be returned to the sewage treatment...

AQQA is used in industrial wastewater treatment to: separate the sludge from the clear water in membrane bio reactors. constitute the final filtration of the effluent of standard sewage treatment plants (tertiary treatment). keep specialized bacteria in the system, that can biologically degrade organic matter. enable Zero Liquid Discharge: prefiltration for reverse osmosis systems.

In the marine market, ocean-going vessels and fresh water or inner coastal boats require water treatment technologies to meet drinking water, process water and wastewater requirements. Offshore oil and gas operations and ocean-going vessels generate sewage that can contain contaminants which have a detrimental effect on water quality and the overall marine environment. As a result, marine sewage treatment systems are required to lessen the environmental impact. The MEPC.227(64) effluent standards, adopted by...

An Ontario municipality deploys Portable flowmeters to solve flow rate discrepancies between sewage pump station effluent and lagoon influent flowmeters. Faced with suspension of construction permits due to flow rate uncertainty, the Township of North Glengarry called on Greyline Instruments to help troubleshoot two permanently installed flow meters.

AQQA® is used in domestic wastewater treatment to: act as barrier for bacteria and virus in membrane bio reactors (directly inserted into the mixed liquor). constitute the final filtration of the effluent of standard sewage treatment plants (tertiary treatment). supply hygienically safe water for reuse, e.g. irrigation of public places and crops. The treated water complies with the German Norm DIN 19650, EK2, reused water for the irrigation of crops for raw consumption. It also exceeds the standards...

Effluents from waste (leachate) are highly polluted and must be treated efficiently before they can be discharged into a municipal sewage plant or a local watercourse.
Conventional treatment technologies do not suffice. Chemical processes are not economic due to the high pH buffer capacity of the leachate. Hardness and chlorides in the leachate are a problem for many plant components. Besides, process knowhow and operating experience are indispensable for an effective elimination of the harmful ammonia nitrogen....

If toxicity is identified in a mixed sewage entering a treatment works, the problem for the plant manager is to track and identify the source of the toxicity. This can be done by sampling the effluent stream at various points in its length. By working in a logical sequence back up the sewer network the number of samples can be minimised. This type of testing should be rigorously enforced for new product introduction by a waste producer, as well as sampling the effluents directly at source. The samples would be...
